I have a male guppy the keeps trying to breed with my molly. Is that even possible? (Well I'm sure it is but will I get fry?)
 
:D actually - apparently it is possible to breed a gollie or a muppy......have seen photos of guppy x mollies - am not sure if the offspring would be fertile though

I t can happen!!! :D it beacsue they are from the same family :D like swordtails and platys are form the same family
 
Guppies swordtail and mollies all are closely related.
They also all have three chromosomes x y and z.

Are you sure because guppys are from the Kilifish family and what are mollies from??
What? Guppies aren't a killifish! They are a member of the Poeciliidae family which is the same family that mollies are from. The Latin name for guppies is Poecilia Reticulata. Sharing the same family could possibly mean that a cross breed with a molly could happen but I have never seen it happen. Killifish are from a completely different biosphere, nothing like guppies at all.
